I wanted to migrate a list stored on sourceforge.net to mailman kept on

It's about 300 messages.
It seems that there is no easy way of doing that, and I'll have to open
each mail stored on sourceforge.net, copy it's contents, sender, and
date, and send it to a new mailman installation (with the appropriate
From:, date, and subject/body) - all 300 mails manually.
Did anyone already migrate from a list stored on sourceforge.net, and if
so, could somebody give me some hints on how to do it best?
I assume your need is to archive the previous emails, you are not
concerned with member migration. The archive used by mailman is stored
in mbox format. If you can somehow grab your existing archive as a flat
file (in mbox format or convert it) you could install the mbox file and
run mailman/bin/arch to rebuild mailmans archive from the mbox file.
